At this moment, I was completely sure that all of this was indeed related to the City God of Tanhua Village.
I just don’t know what the city god wanted to do by leaving this weird talisman behind.
I don’t think his purpose of doing this is simply to seal the explorer Xu Dahai here. After all, Xu Dahai obviously has a deep obsession with becoming an immortal. Otherwise, he would not have locked himself in this hole in order to become an immortal.
Inside the coffin, even now, the soul still exists.
If it weren't for the effect of that talisman, Xu Dahai might have turned into a ghost because of his deep obsession and resentment.
At this moment, something else caught my attention.
It's a sword.
This sword looks somewhat similar to the Earth Immortal Sword I found in Fenling Village. The difference is that it looks dull now, and the sword is full of cracks. There is a pattern on the hilt, and the pattern has been blurred.
But I can still vaguely see the outline of the pattern.
It’s almost the same as the Chenghuang statue I’ve seen before.
Is this the City God’s sword?
I took the sword out of the coffin, and an icy chill swept over me in an instant. Then I felt the scene in front of me change. There was a statue in front of me, and there was a person kneeling in front of the statue. That person
Both hands hold up a sword.
I seemed to hear a sound coming from the statue.
The sound was intermittent, and I could only hear a few vague words.
Offer, immortality, immortality...
However, this fragment just flashed through my mind and disappeared without a trace.
When I came back to my senses, the surrounding scene had returned to its original state, and the sword in my hand, the cracks on the sword also began to expand at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then broke.
And as the sword body shattered, I saw a bone on the hilt.
Like a crystal.
It is the bones of the City God.
I am no stranger to City God Bones.
The City God's bones were like ice crystals and were fundamentally different from the white bones of ordinary people, so I could recognize them at a glance.
But I still can’t figure it out, why does this sword contain the bones of the City God?
I thought about it for a while, and finally decided to put the bone away. If I want to know the truth, I might have to find the nearby City God Temple and find out the situation of the nearby City God.
But I don't want to go now.
With my current strength, I am not qualified to take this risk, unless that city god is similar to the previous city god in Xiawei Village and is on the verge of death. Otherwise, if I offend him after I go, it may be a dead end.
After putting away the City God's Bone, I threw a few more fire talismans into the well.
I can't help the thousands of remains in the well to be buried one by one. The only thing I can do is to prevent them from becoming lonely souls in the well and to be able to disperse with the wind.
After settling the matter here, I woke Liu Shan up again.
This time Liu Shan had returned to normal. After waking up, he rubbed his head with a puzzled look on his face: "What just happened to me?"
I smiled and said, "You tried to jump into the well, but I knocked you out."
Liu Shan was stunned for a moment, then looked at me suspiciously and said, "How is that possible?"
"Why did I jump into the well so smoothly?"
I shrugged and said, "It's getting late, we should go back."
"If you go back like this, they won't believe you." At this moment, a familiar voice came. I looked over and it was Xu Ergou.
My brows furrowed involuntarily, but they soon relaxed.
I really didn't see Xu Ergou before.
Seeing that I didn't speak, Xu Ergou walked towards me, with a somewhat complicated look on his face and a little red eyes. He had obviously seen the first half of the old house.
"I'll go back with you."
"My condolences." I nodded and sighed, "I couldn't save them."
To be honest, I didn't expect that so many people died in Tanhua Village all at once.
Although when I made the bet with Na Xu Ergou and the others, I had already thought that something would happen to someone, but at that time I knew one thing very clearly, that is, if I want the people in Tanhua Village to wake up and stop being incited, I have to make some sacrifices.
The price of blood.
However, I never thought that Wang Shouyi and others would be so heartless.
From this day on, Tanhua Village was almost the same as Fenling Village before.
The only remaining people, except Xu Ergou, a stronger man, most of the others who remained in the village were old, weak, women and children.
It's a little better than Fenling Village.
But it's not much different.
There is almost no big difference from Wu Village.
"I should say thank you to you on their behalf." Xu Ergou looked at me with a complex expression, his voice choked with sobs, "If I could convince them to trust you and stop them from coming to this mountain, maybe this wouldn't happen.
Such a thing."
"This is something I didn't expect." I said, "But Wang Shouyi and Boss Zhang are already dead. This can be regarded as an explanation from me to you."
"but……"
I thought for a moment and then said: "After we get down the mountain, if you can, please leave this village."
"Your village is not that simple."
Hearing what I said, Xu Ergou was stunned for a moment.
I didn't continue talking, but walked towards the outside of the house.
What I didn't expect was that the bodies of Wang Shouyi and Boss Zhang disappeared.
In the house, the bodies of the villagers from Tanhua Village were still in their original positions, but the places where the bodies of Wang Shouyi and Boss Zhang were were empty.
Only Wang Shouyi's wooden sword and Boss Zhang's bell were left on the ground.
This made my heart skip a beat.
From beginning to end, I didn't notice any movement.
But how did the bodies of these two people disappear out of thin air?
"Why do you feel like something is missing?" Liu Shan followed me, also a little confused.
I said: "Wang Shouyi and Boss Zhang are missing."
"Be careful."
"Besides the three of us, there may be others here."
Xu Ergou also walked out at this time, but he didn't seem to care about the whereabouts of Wang Shouyi and Boss Zhang. After coming out, he began to clean up the bodies of the Tanhua Village villagers on the ground.
"Aren't they dead?" Liu Shan frowned.
I shook my head and said, "Maybe they are just pretending to be dead."
After saying that, I looked around again and found nothing, so I temporarily put away my uneasiness.
After following Xu Ergou to place the bodies of the villagers in Tanhua Village, the three of us went down the mountain together.
I was cautious when I left the house, and turned back once more. However, there was still no movement in the house. Everything seemed to indicate that Wang Shouyi and Boss Zhang might have run away even if they were not dead.
I didn't think much about it and followed Xu Ergou back to the village.
Next, Xu Ergou took the remaining people in the village up the mountain to clean up. As expected, hundreds of people died overnight. The first reaction of the remaining villagers in Tanhua Village was that I had killed them.
Even if Xu Ergou explained, they were still dubious.
I didn't do anything. I just listened to their insults from time to time, felt their anger and pain, and quietly followed them up and down the mountain. I didn't follow Liu Shan until the bodies of all the Tanhua villagers were taken down the mountain.
